How ReportLost works in Dania Beach
You report the loss
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We ask the right questions so nothing gets missed.
We route it to the right places
Your report goes directly to the Sheriff's Office non-emergency line, City Hall, Broward County Transit, Fort Lauderdale Airport, and community groups where locals actively post found items.
Your report stays active and searching
While you go about your day, your report automatically matches against new found item posts, marketplace listings, and shelter alerts. You get notified the moment a credible match appears, so you don't have to check Facebook groups and transit sites every morning.
Where lost items go in Dania Beach
These are the official channels. ReportLost reaches them all from one form.
Broward Sheriff's Office
The primary law enforcement agency covering Dania Beach. Lost property reported to them is held and cross-checked with found item reports. We tell you exactly which precinct handles your loss location and generate the details needed for a clear report.
City of Dania Beach
City Hall and the Public Safety department coordinate lost and found inquiries, especially for items lost in public spaces or city facilities. We connect your report to the right desk so you don't have to figure out which department handles what.
Broward County Transit Lost & Found
If you left something on a bus or at a transit station, the Lost & Found office holds items and can search their records. We point you to the exact phone number and hours, and include transit details in your report.
Fort Lauderdale International Airport
FLL is minutes from Dania Beach. If your loss happened at the airport, its Lost & Found office (in the Rental Car Center, Level 2) receives and catalogues items daily. We generate the right contact info and claim details for you.
Lost pets
If you've lost a dog, cat, or other pet in Dania Beach, the Animal Safety division and Broward Animal Care hold found strays and check for chips and owners. We connect you to the right shelter line and the local pet recovery community. For urgent lost pet help, file a priority lost pet report.
Community lost & found groups
Facebook community pages and Nextdoor are where locals post found items and rally to help. We alert these groups on your behalf so your lost item gets eyes from neighbors who actually found it.

The sooner you report, the sooner the search begins
Filing your report today gives the Sheriff's Office, transit, and community channels the details they need to spot a match. And once it's in, you can take a breath. Your report will keep running in the background for months, no extra work from you.
Report my lost item →Dania Beach sits at the intersection of several lost item ecosystems: the Sheriff's Office, the city's own lost property channels, Broward County Transit systems, and Fort Lauderdale International Airport just nearby. Each handles reports separately, and reaching all of them yourself means multiple phone calls, emails, and websites to monitor.
ReportLost simplifies that. File once, and we make sure the right authorities and community channels get the word. Even better, your report doesn't stop searching after day one. It remains active, automatically matching your description against newly posted found items across local groups, transit updates, and shelters, so you can focus on other things while the search continues.
